Chapter 1: The Bird with the Bow (II)
The temporary hiding place of the trio is the stronghold mentioned by Archer and is currently under renovation.
It is not known who once lived here, but it is clear that it was once inhabited.
Lohia didn't know much about magic, but with the peculiarity of her heroic spirit, she discovered it.
It cleverly uses magic to frame its magic barrier to avoid idle people and the like, but, probably because it is no longer nearby, this barrier is already very weak, and it will be completely exposed to people's vision in about two or three days.
Between the trunks of the trees, the tree huts hung from black gauze tents, the only thing that could be used to rest in this camp. Even if Lohia didn't know magic, she could see that there was something like a defensive barrier in that tent. It can be dangerous to rush in. Therefore, what she said before was to ask Tsukahara to wait for an extra hour, just to prepare to investigate this place clearly.
As a result, who knew what happened to Lu Bu?
Lohija bandaged her foot, a wound he had pierced with a nail during the battle with his Assassin.
She had done a simple treatment before, but because she didn't get the magic medicine of the master, the wound didn't heal, and just now with the blessing of the spell, she forcibly escaped with the two of them, and her foot injury was serious, making it even more difficult for her to move.
Tsukahara is not good at magic medicine, and his only playing card that can be used for magic medicine was taken by Leonardo da Vinci to treat Carl at the beginning of the Holy Grail War. At this point, I can only look forward to Mina Tosaka, but she is now in such a depressed appearance, even if Tsukahara Mingshi has the heart to ask her for help, it is not easy to speak at this embarrassing point in time.
The current three of them can be said to be in the most dangerous situation. It's easy to see that Archer is now injured, Mina Tosaka is in a state of mind, and Tsukahara Mingshi himself is left, and the result is still a magic half-ass.
Just now, Tsukahara Mingshi deduced that the enemy should be nine thousand meters away.
Is that a long way? Even middle school students will run a thousand meters during the physical fitness test, and girls will run 800. For the Immortals, nine thousand meters is not a distance at all.
Moreover, it is also necessary to consider that the pillar of light may not be the location of the enemy, if it is a large-scale Noble Phantasm, it is also likely that the pillar of light is the end of the Noble Phantasm, and the Heroic Spirit himself is closer to the place.
She didn't say this kind of worry, and there was no need to make her even more afraid.
The three of them didn't know that this happened to be the place where the Vilvica sisters used to live temporarily, as Lohia deduced, it was precisely because of the death of the Vilvica sisters who maintained the barrier that the enchantment here would become weaker and weaker.
When arranging enchantments, everyone chooses closed buildings, except for monsters like Abner, who forcibly use dragon veins to smear everything with traces of magic.
The more open the building, the more mana it provides when the enchantment is placed spreads out in all directions. The Vilvica sisters also chose to be here because they could investigate the remnants of Surut's powerful attack that burned the leylines when he first appeared.
Now, it's just three cheaper.
Along the way, the three of them saw a lot of corpses.
They were all dressed in similar camouflage uniforms, some were carrying lanterns, some were armed with pistols, presumably forest hunters. After the forest fires, the authorities began to pay attention to it, right?
It's a pity that this weapon is okay against ordinary thugs, but it is too childish to deal with heroic spirits.
Marks of tears can be clearly seen on the bodies of these people, which are not ordinary techniques for killing enemies, but torture.
From this it can be seen that the enemy is either a psychopath, or wants to do something with this person's flesh and blood, or both. I don't want to say that, but I'm afraid it's the enemy's master who did this.
Gotta send Tsukahara away quickly, and then ......
Lohiya bit her lip tightly, and Yin Yin's blood flowed down the corners of her lips because she was pushing too hard.
Then, he had to form an alliance with Karl.
There's no way around it.
Lohia must win the Holy Grail War. If you don't use the power of others, you can't win.
The surviving Heroic Spirits are Saber, Archer, Assassin, Rider, and Caster (she doesn't know that Caster, Assassin is dead), and two of these five Heroic Spirits are overwhelming.
Saber is overwhelmingly strong, and Leonardo da Vinci is overwhelmingly weak.
can be temporarily excluded from consideration.
Among the rest of the people, even if they have Karl to supply themselves with magic, the defects of the spiritual body cannot be compensated for by magic.
Lu Bu is very terrifying now, if he adds an excellent imperial master and strengthens him with all abilities, then he can't even fight him, I'm afraid that he will be stabbed to death in three or two rounds.
Weapons......
Archer could only pin all his hopes on Leonardo da Vinci's weapons.
If he allied himself with Karl, Leonardo da Vinci would be able to provide himself with more powerful weapons...... Perhaps, there is a chance to win. But......
Is it really that easy?
If nothing else, Saber's master obviously wants to hide his whereabouts to the end, and if you want to snipe him, you need to find his people first......
What's more, Karl said that he had no desire for the Holy Grail, but just wanted revenge, but who knows?
Such agreements that rely solely on rhetoric are the most meaningless.
Thinking so, Lohia stood up.
This simple action alone made Mina Tosaka panic.
"Master, I'll go and prepare some food. It's too dangerous to make a fire here. If the enemy comes, summon me back with a spell. ”
“…… I see, be careful, archer"
Tsukahara Mingshi knew how powerful she was, so he didn't ask much.
Actually, it's easy to understand that Robin Hood is a thief who lives in the forest, and naturally knows the forest well, and if there are no two burdens, she will definitely be easier to act alone.
Moreover, the two of them do need to eat.
If you look closely, Mina Tosaka's lips have begun to dry out, and Tsukahara himself feels more and more empty in his stomach. It is inevitable that we have to eat no matter what, and human beings cannot survive without eating. Moreover, when the stomach is full and tiredness comes up, it is also good to take a good rest and let Mina recover her spirits.
————————
Dressed in a dark green robe, Lohiya blended into the forest in an instant.
As long as it was in the forest, Robin Hood was that elusive guerrilla group. Won't lose to anyone.
Forests are one of nature's most precious gifts, and the necessary resources for human survival can be found in them. As a member of Robin Hood, Lohia felt this deeply.
The forest is inhabited by game, the wild fruit is full of water, and the sap from the trunk of the tree can be used to quench the thirst when necessary, and the firewood for the fire and the trunk of the tree for the construction of the hut can be replenished here.
To put it mildly, as long as you occupy the forest, you have a food warehouse that you don't have to worry about.
Lohia quickly navigated the forest, searching for enemies while patiently searching for game and camps.
Generally speaking, where rangers hang out in large numbers, there should be tents where they gather. They have fallen so many people, and to put it mildly, the dead do not need food and water. It is more important to give these supplies to the living who are in dire need than to remember the dead.
Although this profession is called a forest ranger, most people do not sign up because they love the forest, maybe there is no way, maybe it is for money and life, because they are an excellent jungle guerrilla and participate in the forest ranger, almost none.
Lohia easily found the traces of the deceased, and following in the rough footsteps of the laymen, she quickly found her target.
It was a tent, seven or eight in a circle, and no one was in it now.
Lohia did not feel the smell of blood, looked closely, and did not find the trap. Probably during the day, everyone is on patrol, right? But something is wrong, usually patrolling, won't a few people be left here to guard?
Rohiya was alert for a moment, and used her ability to quietly search for the storeroom, and picked up a bunch of mineral water and canned food from it.
She didn't even look at anything other than the well-sealed food.
Then, she thought about it and put the things back again.
If the enemy is really using this as a decoy, then the best thing to do is to make the enemy not see the slightest change at all.
Immovable non-sealed food is to prevent the enemy from poisoning here. However, if you take away the sealed food, you will be telling the enemy that you have visited this camp, and it will be bad if people look outside for their traces centered here.
After thinking about it for a while, she finally decided to use the safest way.
That is, to hunt animals. The problem of water can only try to find fruit as much as possible, or rivers too. If, as the intelligence says, the mountain was built by hand, then it cannot be inferred by common sense. It is also possible for the producer to forcibly dig a river here just to create momentum.
Lohia left, the dark green cloak flicked twice, and gradually disappeared in the forest, the translucent woman, gradually blending into the surrounding environment, and the traces of the whole person gradually disappeared.
However, what she didn't know was that just as she was leaving, from the very center of the tent, where the bonfire had been extinguished, a large lump suddenly rose from the ground, and the loose white ash was visibly turned up, as if something was going to be probed out of the ground, and the top of the dirt was turned over, and on the top of the bulge, faint traces of blood gushed out.
This strange bump was turning over in the direction of Lohia, as if it was some kind of monster that inhabited the ground, following Archer Lohia, tracking the past!
As it departed, a trail of churned dirt was evident on the ground. The place where the ashes of the campfire were originally placed, because of the loss of support, there was a bang, the ground collapsed, and in the mud cover, the structure of the corpse could be vaguely seen, and the blood color was thicker, and in the gray ashes, it gradually rendered.
Countless tiny flying insects emerged from the dirt and continued to gnaw at the corpses that had not yet been cleaned.
Everything, as Lohiya speculated, this, is definitely not a natural phenomenon!
